Government Is Urged;

Russia to “smash Hitler now”

to make Germany fight on two fronts is lost were made in Parliament today during a. vigorous debate on the war.| The debate, during which Foreign Minister Anthony Eden disclosed that trained and well-equipped British forces

in England and the Middle East were virtually non-ex-jstent at one time last summer, was featured by: yy 1—A statement by Supply Minis"ter Lord: Beaverbrook that America and Britain were making good on promises to deliver war aid to Russia and to “restore fully” all tanks and planes lost by Russia; and that Josef V. Stalin had informed Washington and London that Russian industries had been forced to move sastward in “leap-frog” fashion. 2—A demand by Philip J. NoelBaker, Laborite, that British armed forces from the Middle East be sent into. Russia to fight beside the Red Army in defense of the Ukraine and the Caucasus aréas and that R. A. P. planes strike at the Luftwaffe on the Eastern Front. ~

Calls Halifax Blackguard

3—A statement by Aneurin Bevan, Laborite, asking “how far from high treason” was the statement of Lord Halifax, British Ambassador to the United States, that the British could not invade Western Europe. William Gallacher, Communist, intefposed: “We know he is a blackguard.” He - warned Prime Minister Winston Churchill that “i is time to get rid . of some of these men who will drag him down.” 4. A warning by Josiah Wedgwood, Laborite] against “tempting” peace offers to be expected from Hitler in event of a Russian sur render and a statement that “there is no hope for us but to smash Hitler now that we have got the Godgiven, chance,” 9A call by Beaverbrook for all British workers to be prepared; after providing the tanks, airplanes and guns needed by Britain, to rush from their workbenches and take up arms to defend Britain against invasion as the Russian workers are defending Moscow.

before the “God-given chance”

of Wedgwood who asserted that there are a hundred places in Western Europe where an army could “make nightly raids” and that “sitting down” might ruin the British Army’s morale. Bevan and Gallacher led a much more bitter attack on Government members, with Bevan charging the people “believe the Government is a racket.” Gallacher, asserting that the time had come for a reorganization of the Cabinet, said: “We betrayed the people of this country when we betrayed, the people of Spain and Czechoslovakia. The men who did that are still in the Government and have got to be cleared out.”

Asks Invasion of Spain

He then named Lord - Halifax, Capt. Henry Margesson, the War Secretary; Col. John Moore-Bra-bazon, Minister of Aircraft Production, and Lord Croft, Undersecretary for War DS llaciun suggested that if it were possible to send British forces to Spain the people would “welcome them with open arms.” He charged that Croft was a “pronounced Fascist” during the Spanish civil war. . “The people are ready to take grave risks for Russia,” Noel-Baker said. “Let the Government be very certain that this House and nation will see them through.” ° Eden replied that everything done for Russia was for the salvation of Britain, and remarked: “Where is this nation going to be if Russia is unable to hold on.”

Cites Industrial Shift

Beaverbrook also emphasized the danger of invasion if Russia falls. He pointed out, however, that the transfer of the Soviet industries to the Urals region made it necessary, for Britain and the United States to give an especially large amount of help until the new factories could get into production.

6. A statement by Eden declaring that the Government reiterated its pledges to help Russia in every way and never to negotiate with Hitler “or any of his associates on any subject now, in the future or at any time.” Eden's statement was sensational in that he disclosed the unpreparedness of Britain last summer. He said that at one time there had rot been one fully-trained and equipped division in Britain. “Our defenses were virtually nonexistent .and our Middle Eastern forces lacked practically all modern | equipment,” he said. | The Foreign Secretary said that | equipment being sent to Russia was

divisions in Britain but that “tanks and airplanes being delivered to Russia will be sent in accordance to terms of the program we pledged to Stalin.” _ Britain, he said, lost about 1000 } guns in France and the “guns that

# remained to us in this country

(peaning in 1940) were many, many fewer than 1000.”

N Denies ‘Batting’

Replying ‘to the opposition charges, Eden said that the accusation that the Government was “ratting” on aid to Rusisa or that it did not have the support of Commons or the country was a serious charge and he invited the oppositign to challenge the Government tos a vote of confidence. He added, without giving details, that “The Royal Navy has given help not only directly in convoying supplies to Russia but indirectly in attacks which it has been making— nos much-publicized attacks but tive attacks — upon German po lines in the north and German troops attacking Russia in that theater (apparently near Mur-

HIGH COSTS UPSET REGIME IN ICELAND

REYKJAVIK, Iceland, Oct. 23 (U. P.) —Disagreement over means of preventing further rises in living costs and salaries and other problems caused by American and British occupation was blamed today for the resignation of the Icelandi¢c Government. Hermann Jonasson, who had been Premier for seven years, handed his resignation to the regent, who said he would announce later whether it was accepted. Jonasson said recently that living costs had risen 70 per cent because of the military occupation, that Iceland’s commerce had been disrupted, that farmers were leaving their land to work on defense

“unfortunate incidents” because thousands of soldiers were seeking the company of a relatively few native girls. He said many Icelanders feared that their prosperity would collapse and the United States and Britain would forget about Iceland as soon as the war is over.
